Cychrus
caraboides  |
||
| This is a large and distinctively shaped Carabid, often found under logs in damp and shady woodland. It is extremly similar in shape to the Violet Ground Beetle, but lacks any of that species' metallic highlights. Although described as being common, C. caraboides is often fairly difficult to find in parts of the Sherwood Forest NNR, most success coming from checking underneath logs during the colder months of the year. | ||
